Review Lacramioara Timofciuc-Pop-Cot
Review Emmanuel Soda
Review Maciej Grabek
"La 6 luni după sesiunile de consiliere în carieră cu Ioana Maxim, pot spune cu toată sinceritatea că a fost una dintre cele mai valoroase investiții personale pe care le-am făcut. Încă de la început, răbdarea Ioanei și modul în care m-a ghidat au creat un spațiu sigur, în care am putut explora perspective noi și resurse interioare de care nici nu știam sau la care nu mă gândisem până atunci. Instrumentele pe care le-a folosit au scos la suprafață calități, motivații și direcții care astăzi îmi sunt fundamentul traseului profesional. La câteva luni distanță, Ikigai-ul meu prinde contur tot mai clar. Acțiunile mele sunt aliniate cu misiunea mea, susținute de un mindset rezilient pe care l-am dezvoltat în urma procesului. Autosabotorii care altădată mă blocau nu mai au aceeași putere — îi recunosc din primele semne și am capacitatea de a mă recentra rapid. În timpul sesiunilor, am activat curajul, am dizolvat limitări și am recăpătat încrederea în propriile resurse. Ce mi-a rămas după lucrul cu Ioana este voința de a construi un drum care îmi aduce împlinire autentică și convingerea că valoarea mea, ca om, este mai importantă decât orice titlu profesional. Este o schimbare profundă, cu efect pe termen lung, pentru care îi sunt recunoscătoare."

"I met Ioana a few years ago in a professional context. When she told me about her new career counseling project, I knew right away that it was something she would do very well and that would help many people like me. At the end of the four sessions, I can say that I learned a great deal about myself. About who I am and what I truly want, but especially about the reasons behind these concepts."
GabrielaCareer counselling client
“My program span almost a year. A year in which I had to really step back and reflect because I went through tectonic changes in life. Not in a single point, did my sessions went in wrong direction because they were really focused on developing a path, based on my personality and what I stand for. If you were to build a house, you would make sure you have strong base. If something is more important than house, that is you to yourself. This session really starts with your values, even if you have not ever thought properly about them, and builds upon them because that is the only proper way to do it. The only way it can stand the test of time and challenges. That is the reason why this testament is a recommendation and a hopefully a proper reflection of the value you will get in the time spent with Ioana. I went through it, really tested it and came out with something tangible I can come back to no matter the circumstances."
IvanCareer counselling client
“Ioana helped me navigate a moment of uncertainty in my career. I had many options but wasn't sure which path to take. After more than 10 hours of thoughtful conversations, I narrowed down my options and developed a concrete action plan. I now feel clear about my next steps and confident I can succeed because I understand myself better. The experience was both insightful and inspiring. I'm not just leaving with a path to follow, but also with the “fuel”, the motivation, to go far."
MarcoCareer counselling client
"I had a safe and pleasant environment to address a heavy topic for our culture: a career in harmony with the rest of our lives. These hours spent together help me focus on reflecting on my career from perspectives I haven’t considered before. I also reflected on setting my long-term goals using a tool that resonates with my life perspective, namely balancing work with the rest of my life."
AndreeaCareer counselling client
"Career coaching sessions with Ioana have been fundamental in my efforts to create more awareness of my own strengths. Before starting the sessions, I felt directionless both in my professional and personal life, but with her help, I brought clarity to many areas of my life—areas I once thought were too complex for me to unravel on my own. The effects of the sessions are incredible: I feel more confident in my own abilities, I can more easily distinguish what I like, and I feel that I am making decisions that are more aligned with my authentic self."
AmaliaCareer counselling client
"Programul Ioanei mi-a adus mai multă claritate asupra motivațiilor și valorilor mele. Am înțeles mai bine de ce fac ceea ce fac și ce direcție trebuie să urmez. Am descoperit de ce am nevoie pentru a fi mai motivat. Am construit pași concreți pentru atingerea obiectivelor și pentru o schimbare în carieră."
AdiCareer counselling client
"Ioana is a great coach who truly stands apart from the classical “coach” paradigm. She focuses on real connection, empowers genuine self-confidence, and helps you realise that what you’re searching for is often already within you, you just need to look at it from a different angle. Working with her helped me identify and plan a more fulfilling career path, and I’ve regain the excitement and enthusiasm for my work and future plans."
IulianCareer counselling client
Do I need to already know what change I want to make?

No. You can come to the session precisely because you know something is no longer working, but you’re not yet sure which direction you want to take. During the 90 minutes, we start with your specific situation, put your options in order, and clarify what makes sense for you.

Is the session only for people looking for a new job?

No. We can talk about changing jobs, remote work, a portfolio career, or simply what you would like to change about your current relationship with work.

Is a single 90-minute session enough?

For some, yes. They leave the session with the clarity and direction they needed and continue on their path.

For others, the 90 minutes are the beginning of a deeper process. If you want to explore the change more deeply and build a career plan, you can continue with the Career Reframing Group Program or the Career Reframing Individual Program, depending on how you prefer to work.

Will you tell me which career or job I should choose?

No. The session isn’t about getting a one-size-fits-all solution or a formula for what you “should” do. We work from your context, options, and specific challenge, so you can arrive at a direction you feel confident owning.
